Jesus Wept

What if your tears aren’t a sign that your faith is failing?

In John 11, Jesus stood outside the tomb of Lazarus knowing resurrection was coming—and still, Jesus wept.
In this deeply personal episode of Heaven Meets Home, Rachel Christine shares pieces of a season marked by family brokenness, loss, uncertainty, and moments involving her young daughter that led her back to those two powerful words: Jesus wept.
Together, we’ll look at what Scripture teaches us about grief, biblical lament, and the heart of a Savior who is not distant from our pain. Through the story of Lazarus, the honest prayers of David, and the hope of the resurrection, we’ll discover that grief and faith can exist in the same heart.
You’ll be encouraged to pour out the parts of your heart you may have been afraid to bring to God—and to remember:
God sees every tear.
The Spirit helps you in your weakness.
Jesus intercedes for you.
And while Jesus wept outside Lazarus’ tomb, the story didn’t end there.
The Jesus who cried outside Lazarus’ tomb would eventually walk out of His own.
So if you’re grieving a person, a relationship, a season, an unanswered prayer, or something no one else seems to see, this episode is for you.
The Lord is near. 🤍
